Umm, not sure what only getting edge means. Does that just mean no data, just voice and texts?
[Networking] KayxGee1:
As of 2011 there are three levels of data speed that are used and the order goes like this:

4G

3G

EDGE

The speed decreases as you go from 4G to 3G, and EDGE being the slowest.

You will receive data, just not at blazing fast speeds.
[Networking] AerialX:
From what I understand, T-Mobile uses AWS, of which three carriers here provide: Mobilicity, Wind Mobile, and Videotron.

It's not worth trying to get what EDGE you can from Rogers/Telus/Bell.

[Networking] DEATH6:
I would recommend to get an unlocked ATT phone
[Networking] dwang93:
So after some research, the G2 is a quad band gsm phone, which means it should work on any GSM based carrier. From what I've seen that would be mainly rogers and fido correct? Or are there cheaper alternatives?

Also I looked into the AWS but I'm not sure if my g2 is compatible with AWS. It seems as if tmobile uses both. Does that mean my phone is compatible with GSM and AWS? I'm wondering if you could confirm this Ariel?

Also I will be in the montreal area.
[Networking] KayxGee1:
Yes. It will work but the G2 doesn't have the same 3G bands as Rogers. That means you'll only get EDGE which, by personal experience, sucks. I'm not sure about Fido, though.
[Networking] dwang93:
k, what about an aws service like videotron? That should work as well correct?

When I plug my phone into the computer it actually shows up as two separate removable discs. The SD card is removable E and the phone is removable F. Hope this helps.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Danishswag:
Make sure USB debugging is enabled. For whatever reason, on both android phones I've owned, my computer could only pick up sd cards with it enabled.

Second thought, if you're using a custom kernel, sometimes it can break USB. I remember morfic's kernel broke it back when I used Bionix 2
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jeep447:
I had this problem a few days ago after I flashed the Trigger 2.3.4 gb rom coming from Ultimate 2.2 froyo rom..When I'd plug in my usb and try to mount the SD cards the phone would say the cards are mounted (even the icons for apps installed on the sd would go generic as if they were mounted) but the drives wouldn't show up on my pc for some reason. I never had that problem before so it drove me nuts until I finally got it resolved but for me it was multiple problems..Like the guy before me said always make sure usb debugging is turned on and this may or may not apply to you but if turning on usb debugging doesn't fix it get the LG update tool and install the drivers from inside there because they are the most current ones..I thought mine were the most current because I even redownloaded the drivers on LG's support site but those aren't the most current ones. Anyway hope this helps someone avoid the nightmare I went through!

[Milestone XT720 General] firzen_net:
I was reading up on the article about Lithium batteries on BatteryUniversity and it said that 30 celsius is the ideal temperature for the phone, especially when it is charging.

My phone is normally at 23 C during standby, and quickly goes to around 30 in light usage. If I start playing games then it hits 37 C. Rare times it goes up to 40.

I am wondering if my temperature readings are normal, compared to other XT users.

Any tips on how to lower the temperature is appreciated as well. My biggest problem is when I start getting texts just early in the day and my phone starts over heating from them. Sometimes when I get texts while it is charging it goes up to 36-37. I don't know if it has to do with my app (handcent) but I never expected MMS to be such a "battery heater".

I run music apps all the time and it always stays at 30-32, but then once I start texting, bam. 37.
[Milestone XT720 General] JustinEss:
I've had mine hit as high as I believe 48C, but that was really pushing it and with a 100MHz overclock.

Typically any app that requires processing power will make it heat up a lot.

It may be a good idea to use a CPU manager.
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
You don't really need to sweat it (pun intended). No matter what you do, the CPU will have to work, thus creating heat. The only time you really have to worry about it is when it gets around 50°c. At that point you have to really worry about frying your processor. I have gotten mine up to 54°c and nothing happened. Freaked out, yes and put the phone down to rest for about an hour. Biggest thing that causes temp to go up, believie it or not, is the display. I can listen to an entire baseball game with the screen off and temp will hover around 113°f. Screen on and it goes way up really fast. SetCPU had a profile that will throttle back CPU when temp gets too high. Cool widget is Batstat. It'll show charge, voltz and temp in f/c°.
[Milestone XT720 General] androidlover123:
my phone's usual starting temperature (while phone is doing nothing) is around 30-32 degrees. I believe that it's due to warm climate where I live( room temperature during day is like 30 degrees) after playing a graphics intensive game for 5-10 min, phone temp will reach 40 degrees. Is that normal?
[Milestone XT720 General] firzen_net:
yeah, thats wat i'm wondering too. But then the post above u said as long as its not over 50 then its fine. I've read for other phones it goes up to 60/70 sometimes, so i guess i'm just over wondering.
[Milestone XT720 General] eejin2:
my average temperature when i just pick up my phone is around 32degrees unless im in an air conditioned room... it usually heats up to 35-37 while im using it to do light stuff like facebook and twitter. my phone gets very hot only when i use my 3g network or when i am downloading a lot of apps from the market. i dont play games.
[Milestone XT720 General] Zachary57:
I am under 40°C with OC to 820mhz. I can have 40°C when I use gps on car when there is a lot of sun.

PS : I you want to stay at 40°C, you can use setcpu and underclock phone when battery temperature is higher.
[Milestone XT720 General] crobat:
On standby, my phone is at about 30 degrees. After light usage, it goes up to 37 degrees, which I guess is normal...

I once had my phone go up to 52 degrees. OC'ed to 1.2GHz and was running a game.

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Caveman Joe:
Okay folks, I figured I could either hang back and wait for a root / Cyanogenmod ROM for the DoubleShot and cross my fingers, or I could put my money where my mouth is. :)

I've got $25 (via PayPal) waiting for the first person to sort me out with a way to get permanent root status on my S-ON doubleshot, and another $25 for the first Cyanogenmod ROM I can download with a better pixel density and none of the T-Mobile crap. I also offer myself as a beta tester. :)

$25 for so much work isn't very much, but if we can get some more folks to pledge some cash, then there could be a nice wee incentive for devs to get this thing rolling nice and fast. :)

Anybody else?

EDIT: $150 pledged already! This is great! Keep it coming! Our beloved devs work hard so that we can have the best and most awesome phones; let's sweeten the deal for them. :)

If you want some guarantee that I'm gonna stick my fifty in ($25 for S-Off and another $25 for the first CyanogenMod ROM that works), well, I've got six thousand players on improbableisland.com who'll be extremely disillusioned if their admin caveman didn't hold up to a promise. ;)

[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] chorpler:
With the perma-temp root, you can do root. You just have to re-run a script after a reboot... not ideal, but at least we can do root stuff while we wait.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
I'd be in for $25 as well, but I'm not sure if the group doing the exploit have a way to receive these funds as a collective. I'll investigate that later today.

EDIT: nevermind. They do. Lets see who else we can get together for a fund! $75 so far.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] unclespoon:
I'm in for $25 too, the MT4GS needs S-OFF and Root like Pearl Harbor needed a better plot (and that's an awful lot).

New total = $100
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Kaczman:
I'm in for $25. Diddnt care about S-OFF or Root on my G2, but **** all this bloatware on the MT4GS.

New Total = $125
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
I'd be in but only for an exploit that doesn't involve 18000 steps, scripting and downloading tons of large installs. Why can't be as easy to root as my A500!?!?!?!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
It will be streamlined.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] blackknightavalon:
If you've owned a G1, you'd know that various root processes that involve that many steps ARE streamlined (the root process, A2SD, DeathSPL, CyanogenMod after 4.1.11.1, etc. involved over 9000 steps that weren't feasible on a Windows machine).
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Namit1994:
Nbetcher, are you one of the developers in one of those teams that make unlock tools?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
Not really. Lets just say I'm "consulting" for them for our device. :P I have direct contacts though.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pmcqueen:
since the MT4GS is so closely related to the E3D and the Sensation, shouldn't this be a piece of cake?? I've never done any work on exploits, so I'm not sure exactly what goes into it. just curious.. with $125 on the table I'm tempted to dig into it myself.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
Yes, it is similar hence the hope that it can be accomplished. The notable difference is that the Evo 3D ("Shooter") is HBOOT 1.40 and ours' is HBOOT 1.44. The Sensation (Pyramid) is even older than Shooter. Point being? We have a newer HBOOT, so things may take more time, plus I'm not sure if the appropriate party received my message that there's $125 on the line.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
Good luck. Unrevoked went to a lot of work to prevent reverse engineering and now that AlphaRev and Unrevoked are a team ('Revolutionary'), the Pyramid and Shooter S-OFF release is likely just as closed as Unrevoked releases.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] pmcqueen:
yes, I see that digging into the pyramid release. oh well. I respect that it's their work and I'm not about to waste hours upon hours of my time trying to figure that mess out.

I contacted HTC requesting help (considering they're finally starting to get the ball rolling on unlocking bootloaders), but I'm not really holding out much hope there.

did you let the team know that the MT4GS guys have put $150 (I'm adding $25 to the fund as well) on the table for the first team/person to get the doubleshot s-off'd?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] dansl:
Wonder if MT4GS will be included in this

http://androidandme.com/2011/08/new...hones-bootloader-with-upcoming-web-based-tool
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:
They've already said it will only include the E3D and Sensation.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] rorytmeadows:
Streamlined?!?!?

This is streamlined???

It sure may be less steps, but it's not streamlined. Acer A500 root is streamlined: 1. app install, 2. lock orientation, 3. run app, 4. click root, 5. sit back
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] nbetcher:

Excellent ... so does that mean the S-OFF exploit is releasable now?
